start of pipes implementationfeature/pipes

Currently they just pipe strings around the place, but there's no reason we can't pipe objects instead.

Demo commands to use are: grep, sort, less, wc
i.e show-source Pry | grep target | sort | wc

Limitations:
* aliased dont work, so you have to use show-source, not just $
* commands can no longer take 'block' input, and the tests have been commented out
* commands are currently too aware of pipes, in the future output should be automatically piped without requiring
  the command programmer to check for out_pipe?
